How Can We Really Even Know?
Tonight:
Tonight, PubliCola is hosting a 520 face-off. It's Kirkland Rep. Deb Eddy (D-48, Eastside Seattle Suburbs), who fought in Olympia for the current six-lane, two-bridge 520 plan with zero dedicated rapid transit lanes vs. City Council Member Mike O'Brien, who's been pushing for a dedicated rapid transit lane. (He also has a coalition of Montlake and Capitol Hill neighbors, who say the current plan will upend their neighborhoods, on his side.)
Erica C. Barnett is hosting the thing, and it's at the Del-Ray, the nice bar where, in November, PubliCola hosted our historically-significant post-mayoral campaign debrief.
Tonight at 5:30 the Del Rey (2332 1st Avenue).
Tomorrow:
Annie Leonard—whose famous YouTube hit "The Story of Stuff" illustrates the consumer cycle and how it is slowly killing the world—is going to be at Town Hall tomorrow night.
Leonard's not a scientist (although her new book is full of graphs), but her thing isn't so much proving a point, as it is asking questions and follow-up questions such as: Why don't we ever think about how much waste we create? And how can we even really know how much waste we create?
You can watch Leonard's video here.
Wednesday from 7:30 to 9pm, at Town Hall (1119 8th Ave). Tickets are $5.
